4.1. THE TIMERS

The event timers are a kind of alarm clock. An event

 

timer reminds you when a timed program or recording

 

starts. You can set the next timers:

 

DVR timer, to automatically record a program onto

 

the hard disk.

 

VCR timer, to automatically switch over to the

 

timed program before it really starts. This allows

 

you to record a program on a video tape (video

 

recorder);

 

Reserved timer, to automatically switch over to the

 

timed program before it really starts or when the

 

receiver is in standby, to switch on the receiver.

 

If a timer is set on a program that is shown in the EPG,

 

the relevant data is already shown in the timer. You

 

can change the settings as follows:

 

Date, to set the start date for the timer;

 

Start time, to set the start time in hours/minutes;

 

Stop time, to set stop time in hours/minutes;

 

Period, to set the timer once or repeat for every

4

occurrence;

Favorite list, to select a list where to save the recording (none saves into the all files list).

Parental lock, to lock or hide the recording automatically.

Status, to set (active) or delete (inactive) the timer.

Store settings, to program the timer.

Timers are shown in the EPG window as clocks.

In the List-Timers page, it is possible to get a list of the timers that are set. In this page you also can change or delete a set timer.

You can view an overview of all the timers that are set if you select the timers list.
